This article is from two weeks ago and was already discussed here.

From the article:

Cain said, “I happen to think that maybe they were booing the whole ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ repeal more so than booing that soldier.”

When asked if he should have asked the audience to respect the soldier, Cain said, “In retrospect, because of the controversy it has created and because of the different interpretations that it could have had, yes, that probably — that would have been appropriate”

_______

So which part do you all disagree with that Cain said he didn’t think they WERE booing the soldier? Or the part that he should have asked the audience to respect a soldier?

Are you trying to silence the lambs? I did not see the article before and whether or not it was posted we are all looking for the best candidate for the job. Main duty of the president is to serve as commander in chief. I do not like defending a gay that was probably a plant..period. Cain’s words were that he should have defended him from the boos. You can’t deny or spin that fact. I want every candidate running to be veted through and through...my vote matters to me.

I think it’s the part where he thinks it’s his job to be a nanny to the audience.

Or maybe the part where he admits they were booing the question, but says they should still be chastized for not respecting the soldier.

Or maybe it’s the part where Cain wants to be President, but thinks he gets do-overs whenever he thinks of a better thing to do later.
